DIR SPG/Console?

[DRE]

To clarify: did the clip fall off because the knot wasn't tied properly or because of abrasion? If the latter, I'd be more worried about my hoses than the line with which the boltsnap was attached. As far as the entanglement or the restriction is concerned, again I don't see the issue. You're still breathing from a reg that is not clipped off and you're always donating what's in your mouth. If the long hose gets snagged while stored you just cut it free. It is one of the areas less prone to get snagged anyways.
DIR is about going over every possible scenario - this is an excellent discussion to show with which detail every single aspect is considered, whether it is gear, theory, the mind or the body.
